The above link is to my Main task which I have uploaded to YouTube. The task was to create the opening scenes to a film of any genre. I chose to go for the horror genre, mostly because I enjoy films from that genre, so I had a reasonably good idea of what a new film should be like. Again, I starred in the film because I had an idea of exactly how I wanted the character to react, and explaining precise movements directions to an actor can be stressful for both parties. I did then, of course, have the problem of directing the cameraman, ensuring he filmed the shots I required. Thankfully, most of the shots were filmed in the first couple of takes which kept spirits high, and moods good. Another problem with casting someone else would be convincing them to drink water from a dog bowl, and eat coffee etc. Neither of those were particularly enjoyable tasks, so forcing them onto someone else didn't seem appropriate. The basic plot is that an unassuming young man goes to a medical facility, "Medicon", thinking that he's helping test a new Anti-Cancer drug. However, the company are actually just after Human guinea-pigs for their twisted tests. When the man returns home, he drinks a beer which unfortunately reacts with unforeseen consequences...
